Shiba Inu - "A friendly, outgoing dog, the Shiba Inu is an alert guardian of family and home, quite content to be a watchful housedog. Light and quick, its movement is completely effortless. The Shiba is perky, outgoing and curious... the Shiba is adaptable and flexible, so most living conditions will suit this dog just fine. It's full of energy, so give it plenty of daily exercise." www.dogchannel.com
